4diac-ide is currently only partly supporting user defined data types. That means you can not directly define structs in 4diac-ide or generate the code for it. As described in the development docs you need to implement your struct in cpp following the teststruct example. In order to get it into the ide you need to edit one FB's XML file and change a data in or output data type name to your struct's name. then 4diac-ide will parse this correctly and teh name can be used also in other FBs. However 4diac-ide will not understand the internals of the struct.

Having a better support for structs in the IDE would be great.
Thanks for pointing out your problems. With all the changes we performed for 1.9.0 we hadn't time to update all the documentation. There are a view things we should fix here:
1. Please always use the latest Eclipse Modeling tools (currently Oxygen.3a). Neon is already nearly 2 years old
2. Always use the target platform as described in the section "Set Target Platform"
3. With 1.9.0 we migrated the type-library into the ide repository. You can find it in the data directory
The link to the documentation you provided pointed to sourceforge. Where did you get that link? The latest version of the documentation is located at: https://www.eclipse.org/4diac/en_help.php, or in the help of Eclipse 4diac-ide. The source for the help is hosted in the git repo of 4diac-ide. you can find it in the org.eclipse.fordiac.ide plugin under html.

Hi thanks the update doc. I would have the following comments:
1. always use the latest Eclipse modeling tools (e..,g in 2 weeks Photon will be released)
2. always use the target platform, the target platform describes all dependencies of 4diac-ide and leads to a clean build environment. Although it requires to put the template and typelib at a different less easy to find place.
If you want to build own 4diac-ide binaries with your code I recommend to use the maven/tycho build environment. Just run a maven clean install on the pom.xml in the org.eclipse.fordiac.ide.master project. If you installed the maven tooling into your eclipse you can easily do this by right clicking on the pom.xml. Or you can also use it in build servers. See for example the official Eclipse 4diac Jenkins [1].
Would you be interested in providing your improvements to the docs as gerrit commits? In the documentation there is a section on how to contribute to FORTE by simple replacing the FORTE repo with the 4diac-ide repo the same procedure works.
Thanks in advance,
Alois

There are two things I noticed afte quickly going through your update:
1 . when using the traget platform the typelib and template directory have to be put into a different location: "your workspace path"/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.pde.core/.bundle_pool
2. I'm no maven expert but we always use mvn clean install in our CI server.
